London is easily one of the most famous European cities that many Malaysians dream of visiting. The old fashioned horse carriages, the Buckingham Palace and more! What an adventure that would be. The only problem is, it’s SO EXPENSIVE. 1£ = RM5+ wei!

• The extremely majestic clock tower: Big Ben
• The retro, iconic, bright red telephone booths
• Bond Street, one of the most revered streets in the world known for its elegant stores, luxury goods, designer fashion and more
• Become a true English and sip some authentic London Tea in a garden, alfresco style

In addition to that, you can keep your kids entertained with these activities:
